Title of Collection: Comprehensive 

Literacy Program Evaluation: 

Comprehensive Literacy State

OMB Control Number: 1850–0945.

Abstract: The Institute of Education 

Sciences within the U.S. Department of 

Education requests an extension of the 

Comprehensive Literacy Program 

Evaluation: Comprehensive Literacy 

State Development Grant Program 

(1850–0945, approved on February 26, 

2021). The extension is to complete the 

collection of state administrative data. 

The extension is needed because the 

state administrative data for the 2022– 

23 school year will not be ready to 

collect prior to the February 29, 2024 

expiration date in all 13 CLSD grantee 

states. No material change in the 

collection instrument, instructions, 

frequency of collection, or use of 

information is being requested. 

The Comprehensive Literacy State 

Development (CLSD) Program 

Evaluation was mandated by Congress. 

The CLSD evaluation includes an 

examination of implementation, a 

randomized trial to estimate the impact 

of CLSD funding on teacher and student 

outcomes, and a longitudinal 

comparison of trends in achievement in 

CLSD and similar, non-CLSD schools. 

With the exception of the state 

administrative data collection—for 

which this extension is being 

requested—all other data collection for 

the study previously approved 

(including state interviews, district, 

school leader, and teacher surveys) have 

been completed.
